Autonomous patrol
A route is not a response plan.
Where mobile patrol adds value, where navigation fails and how people stay in control.
Understand autonomous patrolField notes / Security & surveillance
Security robots can extend a team’s visibility. They cannot replace a response plan. Understand the hardware, the handoffs and the trade-offs before you buy.

Use the buyer’s guide02 — Our approach
We explain categories and evaluation methods rather than presenting unverified product rankings. A useful robot deployment depends on its environment, the people monitoring it and the response available when something goes wrong.
These guides distinguish detection from verification, autonomy from supervision and advertised capability from an acceptance test. Vendor specifications, local law and a site-specific risk assessment should inform every purchase.
